1804 Draped Bust Half Cent. C-12. Rarity-2. Crosslet 4, Stemless Wreath. MS-62 BN (PCGS).A wonderfully original example of this distinct and readily attributable die marriage. Both sides exhibit dominant gray-brown patina, the reverse with considerable golden-copper toning and the obverse with faint remnants of faded pink luster around the devices. Surface texture is satiny and overall smooth with no singularly mentionable blemishes. A uniformly bold strike rounds out an impressive list of attributes for this Mint State type candidate.
